How to shop online

The buying process brings a lot of pleasure and emotions, especially when you have been looking for the desired item for a long time and finally find it. In the real world, in Russia, prices for many wardrobe items are very high relative to stores in Europe and the United States. And besides, there is not always time to go shopping. Therefore, the search and purchase of goods on the network has a great future. Thanks to online stores and auctions, the whole world is open for us, we just need to figure out where and how to buy.

Today I want to talk about the largest auction on the network, ebay.com, how to search for goods on it correctly, how to find great deals.

Personally, I was mainly engaged in sales through the auction, I sold a lot of goods, and this is how my first experience in online trading appeared. It all started almost 10 years ago, when there were practically no good online stores or auctions in our Russian part of the Internet. And today we do not have such a project that could compete with the auction.

The ebay online auction provides wonderful opportunities for those who want to make purchases or sales. Almost anything can be bought or sold at this online auction. From matchbox labels for collections to luxury real estate and art.

It is very easy to register for the auction. Although it is mostly in English, the interface is very clear and you can easily navigate with a modest knowledge of the language.

To do this, use the search engine. There is both a regular keyword search and an advanced one. To do this, click on the Advanced tab. Using advanced search, you can set many options for sorting products. Starting with a keyword like Chanel 2.55, then indicate in which categories to search. If this is not done, products from all categories will come out and not all of them may turn out to be Chanel bags. It depends on the request, make it as specific as possible. If this is not done, then many related offers will appear on the page in the listing of goods, maybe books where the desired word is found, CDs, games and everything that cannot even be assumed.

Therefore, by asking a clear request, you will quickly find the product you are looking for. True, if the product is so easy to find, then others will find it just as easily, which means that the final price of the product in the auction format may turn out to be high, sometimes more expensive than the fixed price at the same online auction or in a store!

In order to buy cheaper, ask different variants of the query, playing with words. Sellers do not all write the same headlines and texts for their product. Someone could have made a mistake or missed some of the information. Having found such a product, you have a chance to buy it much cheaper.

In order to quickly navigate through multimillion-dollar product listings, set other search parameters - the initial and final prices, thereby cutting off too expensive offers. Choose the format of the sale - auction or buy now (Buy It Now) You can also search by payment and delivery methods, but this does not play a big role in the listing of high-quality interesting offers. To find them, the above is enough.

How to shop online - Delivery
When you find the desired Chanel 2.55 bag and want to buy it, study the seller, his rating, quantity and assortment of goods, as well as carefully pay attention to the shipping methods, and another important point - whether he sends purchases to Russia.

If the parcels are sent only within the United States, you can contact the seller and ask to be sent to Russia.Many agree, and thus, you can make a purchase without intermediaries who accept parcels to their address in the United States and then forward them to you. It is more convenient to work with them, but you have to pay for their services.

And if you count all the costs, then it may not be so small. Payment for the product itself + postage + interest for the transfer. If you also pay an intermediary firm, then you need to find very advantageous offers to make sense.

In addition, I want to give advice - when you just came to the auction, you registered and make your first purchases. Start with inexpensive items that cost a few dollars. After making 7-10 small purchases, you will understand the whole principle of transferring payment, communicating with the seller and receiving parcels. In addition, you will receive a buyer's rating, and this will contribute to the fact that sellers who send parcels only to the USA and Europe will be more willing to agree to your terms and send handbag in Russia.

In addition, when you find a good seller, get to know him, and if you make regular purchases, he will give you discounts on his products. In addition, by buying items from one seller, you save on shipping costs.

The weight of the parcels is distributed in such a way that sometimes the delivery of 1 or 3 purchased items costs the same. For example, a package weighing 1100 grams and 1900 grams will have the same shipping cost. But if the weight exceeds 2000 grams, then it will already be significantly more expensive.

On the one hand, these are all little things, but if you buy relatively inexpensive things, then the shipping cost matters, since sometimes shipping is more expensive than the item itself.

Use a variety of search options, bookmark the best sellers and watch their offers, chat and ask questions. Ask for discounts for purchases of 2 or more items, and thus, your purchases at the auction will be pleasant and profitable.
